Re: Bach 18 (or similar) with Euro Shank?
I would contact Lee Stoffer, The Tuba Meister, and ask to try a Stofer Geib. Lee can tell you if he thinks it will work but, having both, myself, I think it would. Lee is a sponsor of Tubenet.
Always make a good sound; audiences will forget if you miss a note but making a good sound will get you the next job.

Re: Bach 18 (or similar) with Euro Shank?
If it's any help, Bach states in their mouthpiece catalog that their tuba mouthpieces *are* available with Euro shank (by special order). You can download the catalog from Mouthpiece Express.Doc wrote:A friend of mine is on the hunt for a Bach 18 (or equivalent) with a Euro shank to use in his pre-PT B&S 4/4 CC. I haven't seen where you can get a Bach 18 with a euro shank. What mouthpieces come very close in size, depth, shape, round rim, etc.? Other option is some sort of AGR.
Thanks!
